    I just had to share this!

    THE BEST Put Down LINE EVER

    For those that don't know him, Major General
    Peter Cosgrove is an 'Australian treasure!'


    General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently.

    Read his reply to the lady who interviewed him
    concerning guns and children.



    Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you gotta love this!
    This is one of the best comeback lines of all time.

    It is a portion of an ABCradio interview between a femalebroadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor
    a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military Headquarters.

    FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
    So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?
    GENERAL COSGROVE:
    We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery andshooting.
    FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
    Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?
    GENERAL COSGROVE:
    I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.
    FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
    Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity
    to be teaching children?

    GENERAL COSGROVE:
    I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle
    discipline before they even touch a firearm.

    FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
    But you're equipping them to become violent killers.

    GENERAL COSGROVE:
    Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but
    you're not one, are you?

    The radiocastwent silent for 46 seconds and when it returned, the interview was over.
